Avalon Summer Fashion Show!
🧙 WHO: Mukuro and OPEN! (Mingle log)
⚔️️ WHAT: The Summer Fashion Show!
🕒 WHEN: 15th August (Backdated)
🗺️ WHERE: The Beach
⚠️ WARNINGS: None yet!
Despite Mukuro's apparent breakdown earlier in the month, the Summer Fashion show that she announced earlier goes ahead as planned on the bright, sunny Sunday of 15th August. Whilst it seemed intended to be a little more freeform than the last- in no small part due to said breakdown making planning a little more rushed- Mukuro was still running the entire event more like a military operation than anything else...
Summer fashions were the theme of the morning catwalk and display, with an array of cute summer dresses and skirts, cool summer shorts, even a yukata- along with a few less traditional choices. Some of the styles seemed to be either strangely mismatched or poorly coordinated, but that's just fashion for you, right?
There's a break with a Barbecue set up around lunchtime- anyone helping out with the event gets their food for free, of course, but the prices Mukuro's set aren't too unreasonable for attendees. Bottles of sunscreen and water are free for everyone, though. Wouldn't want anyone getting burned or dehydrated!
And the afternoon takes advantage of the beach setting to show off Swimwear! Wouldn't be a fashion show without a swimsuit round...right? Maybe? Regardless, you'd think it would be hard to go wrong with swimsuits, but somehow some of the designs still managed to veer away from fashionable into tacky...
There's plenty of mingle time between the different parts of the show, of course- and why not have a paddle in the bay afterwards? The water's great! So come along, have fun, and try to ignore any...odd choices Mukuro's made along the way.
[ooc: Intended as a mingle so feel free to put up your own TLs and tag around- whether that's getting involved in helping out, going along the catwalk, or coming along to watch, anything goes!]

Mukuro 'Junko' Ikusaba | Danganronpa
Mukuro had to make sure everything went according to plan...! So before the show, she can be found running around- giving orders, trying to organise who's going to model what and when, and making sure its all set up perfectly.
It's a lot of work but she's trying to inject as much energy as possible at every turn. She has a reputation to keep up, after all. Oh- and don't mind the fact that she has a fluffy doggo tail sticking out from under her skirt. Darn animal-part curse.
The Show Itself
Naturally, she had to take to the catwalk herself. It wasn't the most elegant of model walks- and a couple of those high-heeled sandals seemed like they were giving her trouble- but she covered it as best she could.
And, well, otherwise she was taking an MC role between the other models taking to the 'stage'. She didn't have the most insightful comments to make about the styles they were showing- but at least her commentary was enthusiastic, and that's what counts, right?
Mingling/Afterward
Even when most people were taking a break, Mukuro was in the crowd mingling- wanting to check in on her volunteers, make sure the guests were enjoying themselves, getting feedback... she kept up her bubbly persona as much as she could, but sometimes her tiredness seemed to slip through the cracks.
Once the event has wound down, she found an excuse to get away from the main crowd, using the time to paddle in the bay in her cute red and white bikini...she'd tried to cover all the scars and tattoos she had on her torso and legs with waterproof makeup prior to the event, and hoped that would be enough. What an exhausting day...
mingling
"Junko-chan!"
At least it's very obvious that Minako is making her way over to the other through the crowd - because she's already calling out with a really loud voice before she's made her way to the other girl's side.
But once she's finally there, she's smiling, both of her hands clasped together.
"You looked amazing up there, you know!"
Organizing
Once the schedule double-checked, she went to Mukuro but looked at her worriedly. She was putting so much energy into this... It reminded her of when she'd created the Literature Club and had done her best to make sure everything would go fine. She knew better than anyone how exhausting and drained doing this was.
"Are you okay?"
no subject
"Thank you- seriously, I totally pulled it off, right?"
no subject
The question seemed to come as a surprise, though, whilst she was checking through the different outfits she had to wear on the day. What was she thinking- would she even be able to pull any of these off?
"What...oh, yeah, I'm totally excited, you know? It's gonna be awesome!"
That enthusiasm- and the grin that accompanied it- was definitely a little forced.
no subject
Perhaps she didn't want to hold this event in the first place? Even if you were passionate about something, having to deal with events like these could be troublesome. Sometimes, you felt forced to do things you didn't want. That reminded her how her friends hadn't wanted to do anything for the school festival, in spite of being passionate about literature.
Heck, maybe she didn't even like fashion in the first place! But what were the odds of that? Well, after their poem-sharing, pretty high... But that wasn't a thought on Monika's mind.
"You don't have to force yourself, you know." She tried smiling reassuringly, "There's no obligation for you to do this."
Camus | Uta No Prince Sama
[Modeling and fashion shows could be considered part of Camus' job at home, so it wasn't a surprise he could be found at this event. He's probably found in outfits similar to what he wears at home for summer events, this or this.
...Just ignore the fact he has little sheep horns and ears instead of human ones. Curses, peh.]
Barbecue & Mingle
[Camus can be caught at the barbecue between things, along with before and after. He's mostly drinking water and reapplying sunscreen, because something something complexion, but he's there. Come say hello?
Yes yes, he's pretty but also grumpy, I'm sorry.Also, let me know if you want something specific~!]
no subject
That might sound like she's having a little bit too much faith in the other girl. But then again, isn't it exactly like she was told before?
"You're a model, after all!" She didn't forget. If not just because Minako thinks it's so cool that she's talking to an actual model. It's not quite as great as an idol, but it's up there. "If you couldn't do this sort of thing, then who would?"
no subject
"I mean seriously, the whole 'just go up there and pretend the whole crowd is naked' thing totally doesn't work. Who even came up with that?"
no subject
But she seemed to realise she was staring, and she shook her head.
No. This was her duty. That's why- "Hey come on, what sort of Fashionista would I be if I didn't show off from time to time, right? Sure it's, like, totally a lot to organise but- seriously, you're helping me a lot. We're, like, gonna pull this off amazingly."
no subject
Then she slowly raises her hands to cover her mouth, like she's trying to keep a gasp from slipping out.
"You mean you don't do that?!"
Please, Minako, what are you implying that you yourself are doing when you're up on that stage?
no subject
Okay, that was obvious there was something off here. It didn't take being a sentient video game character to realize it. She felt the need to say it— But she also remembered what Sayori's fear had been. That people would start treating her differently if she opened up. It was her fear too, now. And without a doubt, that applied to Mukuro as well. She bit her lower lip and remained silent a while."
"... I won't insist then. But if you ever want to speak of certain things, I'm here, alright?" She forced a smile and nodded, "I promise I won't change the way I treat you. For now, let's continue with the preparations!"
Summer Fashions
Curses definitely weren't helping any of this, but hey-]
Hey~ I really like the look you're going for- the summer style looks great on you. Thanks for coming along.
no subject
Had she misstepped? Was that how she was supposed to do things? Was she the only one who didn't imagine the crowd naked?
no subject
Maybe that was a strange question, but...would Monika stick at her side, if she saw the person she really was?
"...Well, either way- yeah. Let's get things going, we've got plenty of time before people start turning up at least!"
no subject
Maybe not always, but she's definitely done that! Multiple times! Isn't it a common trick? She's not getting shamed for it now, is she?
"It's the easiest way to calm yourself down! Then you don't feel like you could ever be the most embarrassing person in the room..!"
no subject
She seemed to have it all together, she was the picture of confidence and poise: but she was a mess beneath it all. Everyone made facades, right?
"It's like I told you last time."
no subject
It's not a problem, young lady. [Like you're not only 22, Camus...] And thank you.
Also, am I correct in assuming you're the one who put this all together?
no subject
That's right, yeah. My name's Junko Enoshima- I'm known as the Ultimate Fashionista back home, so I totally wanted to bring some of that style here and showcase it, you know?
These two have 1 brain cell between them
That was a bit of a leap, but Mukuro was flustered and not entirely thinking straight.
no subject
What was the real Monika? If she was wearing a mask, too, what did she look like underneath that? Was she, like Mukuro, somebody so far removed from the 'her' that she saw now that she might not recognise her?
...If that were true, then...no. Her answer would still be the same.
"...I've got your back, you know?"
no subject
She smiled at her and winked. When she wasn't hit by epiphanies revealing her entire reality to be nothing more than a video game, Monika was a very loyal friend.
And if Avalon was eventually revealed to be nothing more than a gigantic simulated reality in which she was trapped, then... No, she preferred not to think of such things. Everything had been really great so far. And even if everything was a video game, Mukuro would still be her friend. She wouldn't repeat the mistake of no longer seeing her friends as actual people.
"Let's make your show the best ever; for the sake of the people hiding behind our facades."
The real Mukuro and the real Monika. Maybe someday they wouldn't have to hide behind smiles.
HAHA they're a bunch of idiots and i love it
Because right now all she can do is just imagine what it'd be like if the enemy ran at you like that..
...
......
Give her a moment, this is all playing out in the theater of her mind right now.
"I mean, as long as it was a good-looking enemy.."
Me too they're such muppets
...Oh no now she was imagining the handsome guys she knew in Avalon naked whilst fighting her. And, well, her cheeks were going scarlet.
"I totally didn't just imagine it!!"
no subject
"You totally were imagining it!" Why else would her face grow that red in the first place? And of course, with that thought in mind, there is only one natural question that could flow out of Minako's mouth.. "So.. who were you imagining naked just now, huh?"
Guess who's leaning closer towards Mukuro with a grin. Minako over here, of course. She is ready for this hot gos.
no subject
Minako had seen through her terrible acting! And as she was teased, she could feel her cheeks burning.
She took a step back for all the good it would do her, waving her hands around in denial.
"U-um, seriously you're imaging it! There isn't anyone at all and even if there were there's no way either of them would- uh-...
Actually given I saw one of them came marching back from a quest half naked, and the other sent a photo of his abs all over the network I don't think they'd hate the idea."
...Hawk. Kipposhi. Why were those two like this??
no subject
Either of them.
Either of them?!
Minako feels like she accidentally happened to hit upon a gossip goldmine. Who knows that she'd just randomly find something like that here, for all places? Sure, she might not know 'Junko' too well, but that doesn't mean Minako isn't here for the gossip all the same. This is what she lives for, and she's already leaning closer, listening with great interest.
"What, what? Are you saying there are multiple guys interested in stripping for you? Is there something special going on there?" Tell her everything, girl!!
